## Resource

Former Randolph County sheriff Aaron Wilson faces felony theft charges after cashing a $5,000 check in June 2025 that was never deposited — sparking an investigation led by current sheriff Andy Boggs. Prosecutors filed formal charges in July 2026, prompting multiple judge recusals before the Missouri Supreme Court assigned Macon County Judge Kristen Burks to preside. A warrant was issued, Wilson surrendered to police, and he’s now jailed on a $5,000 bond while entering a not guilty plea. Special prosecutor Eric Phelps is handling the case, and while a separate state audit is underway, it’s unrelated to the criminal charge.
